Meyer left because he saw Saban had a machine. Florida fans were booing everything his mighty offense did. He quit on us in 09, and then allowed Steve Addazio to run our program during the offseason and completely implode our freaking set up. We were awesome, then sucked. Wasn't lack of recruits, wasn't lack of potiential..it was Addazio being the worst OC I've ever seen, and Meyer not caring. By the time he came back and was "focused" we were done for anyways. Our Oline was the worst we had had in 10 years, our defense was unorganized despite absurd talent, our offense ran a total of maybe 10 freaking plays the whole game and 3 points was a victory that season.

Agree completely. If he can learn to maintain a program he can be on Saban's level IMO, since Saban is just older and has been around longer. He has 2 national titles, and there are how many coaches coaching college football who have 2?

I don't want to say he got "bored" at UF, but maybe complacent is a better way of putting it.

Although I'm not sure he left cause he was scared of Saban; I think the timing just worked out so it is now convenient to say he was scared
